The Droplet and The Pearl

The book was really enjoyable with crisp writing. What made the book interesting to me was the connection to it with the history. I came to know more about Dara Shikoh, the eldest son of Shahjahan. I started googling to know more about him and loved Dara who was unorthodox. While reading the book I thought why the book name is “The Droplet and The Pearl”, when I got the explanation, it was quite a different feel. I loved the character Shamim who was such an intellect.
We can't find person like Sameer in this world who are more helpful and good natured who don't say no to many things which should have changed his life.

The way the story narrated as first and second half and subdivided as small chapters was good. This is a short read. I really want to thank author for making me know more about Dara Shikoh and Sufi's who are fearless.
